I sighed softly and nodded helplessly. -- --Everyone was in an uproar, all with shocked expressions.
Miao Wenqing asked again: "Since Brother Hao has figured it out, why did he return the Forest Bar to them?"
Before I could answer, Brick suddenly exploded and cursed fiercely: "You bastards!" Then he took out the brick and ran towards Zhao Tiequan. We were afraid that he would cause trouble, so we quickly chased after him. Brick ran up to us, waving the brick and said: "Stop acting! Do you really think we can't see it?! We will not return the Forest Bar!"
Zhao Tiequan, who was beating Zhao Hongjun, stopped and stood aside with an embarrassed look on his face. Zhao Hongjun was also stunned, and then he lowered his head in shame. Zhou Wei, the martial artist holding the bowl, was silent, and all looked dejected. The atmosphere in the yard was very awkward, just like being caught cheating. Even the thickest-skinned old gamblers would feel guilty.
Brick was still cursing: "Zhao Hongjun, I am so disappointed in you. We treated you as a good brother, but you acted to trick us!"
Zhao Hongjun clenched his hands, lowered his head and said nothing. Zhao Tiequan sighed and said, "My dear brother, don't blame my son. I forced him to cooperate in this play. I was wrong. If you want to scold me, just scold me."
As a well-known gangster in the south city, it is not easy for him to be so humble.
Brick said again: "Do you admit it? You have ulterior motives and are up to something! You will never get the Forest Bar back in your lifetime!"
Zhao Tiequan turned around and said with his back to us, "Yes, I had ulterior motives and was harboring evil intentions. Since you have seen through my trick and I can't trick you into going to the Forest Bar, please go back and I will apologize to you in person another day." After saying that, he walked forward.
"Brother Zhao!" I called out quickly.
Zhao Tiequan stopped, turned around, and looked at me puzzledly: "Anything else?"
The sun slowly rose higher, the sunlight shone on my face, and everyone in the yard was looking at me.
"Forest Bar, I give it back to you." I said these seven words seriously.
Zhao Tiequan looked at me in disbelief with astonishment on his face. Zhao Hongjun suddenly raised his head, also with a look of astonishment on his face. In addition to the father and son, the martial artists in the yard and the people behind me were also all astonished, except for Ye Zhan, who was smiling slightly, and looked even brighter under the sunlight. Brick was the first to react, he said: "Wang Hao, are you crazy? Knowing that the other party was acting, why did you return the bar?"
I waved my hand and Brick stopped talking. I continued, "Yes, I saw that you were acting, but I'm still willing to return the bar to you."
Zhao Tiequan gritted his teeth and asked, "Why?"
"Because everything is true." I said, "You are a protection guard outside, and you never collect any protection fees. Without the Forest Bar, you will have no source of income, and you can't even support your own apprentices. How can you fight against Hei Yanluo like this? In fact, you don't have to play this drama. Just let Zhao Hongjun tell me everything, and I will return the Forest Bar to you. Of course, the Forest Bar is not mine alone, I still need everyone's consent."
Then I turned around and asked, "What do you think?"
Ye Zhan smiled and said, "I agree with your suggestion." Miao Wenqing said, "You are the boss, you can do whatever you want." Brick said, "Since it is real, let's return it to them." Ajiu and the others hesitated for a moment and agreed. After all, Forest Bar was a piece of fat meat, and everyone was reluctant to give it up. I smiled and said, "Since everyone agrees, then Forest Bar will be returned to its original owner. Brother Zhao, send Peng Jiang to handle the formalities in the next few days."
Zhao Tiequan said excitedly: "Brother, thank you! I...I don't know what to say."
Zhao Hongjun walked up to me, bowed and said, "Brother Hao, thank you. I will never forget your kindness."
At the same time, all the martial artists in the yard stood up, bowed in unison, and said in a thunderous voice: "Brother Hao, thank you!"
I waved my hands quickly: "Don't thank me yet. I just returned the bar to you. I didn't say I would help you fight the Black Yama. This matter must be made clear in advance." Zhao Tiequan said seriously: "Brother, I am already very grateful."
Afterwards, Zhao Tiequan invited us to the living room for tea. After chatting for a while, we found out how Hei Yanluo and Zhao Tiequan got together. It turned out that after Bai Yanluo killed Scar Zhang, his power in the south of the city expanded rapidly, and his new general Yu Chengfei was well-known far and wide. All this made Hei Yanluo feel a kind of pressure. Everyone can see that if Bai Yanluo is allowed to develop, he will definitely replace Hei Yanluo's position, and sooner or later there will be a tit-for-tat contest between the two.
Therefore, Hei Yanluo was unwilling to sit and wait for death, so he hoped to unite with Zhao Tiequan to fight against Bai Yanluo. There were two reasons why Zhao Tiequan was unwilling: first, Hei Yanluo said he wanted to unite, but in fact he wanted Zhao Tiequan to be his subordinate; second, Zhao Tiequan was unwilling to participate in the underworld fighting, he was more inclined to accept disciples and pass on martial arts to promote Chinese martial arts.
As a result, he naturally offended Hei Yanluo. Hei Yanluo thought that Zhao Tiequan was not willing to accept the toast, so he decided to use force since soft tactics didn't work. He was ready to teach Zhao Tiequan a lesson first, so he beat Peng Jiang in the bath center. When Peng Jiang came back injured, Zhao Tiequan was naturally furious and prepared to launch a counterattack the next day. However, he weighed his financial strength and found that a rash attack would only lead to his death. Fighting on the road is for money, which is beyond doubt, and it is different from school.
